My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Axel the Menace. Axel the Fun. Axel the Silly. These are the names we have for this happy, silly, fun boy! Only 30lbs and barely a foot tall, Axel is a ball of silly, loving, crazy energy. When you are in his company, you can’t help but chuckle at the way he plays and interacts with other pups. Don’t let his small stature fool you. He can keep up with the larger pups, holds his own. Axel is extremely vocal when he plays. He plays like he wants someone’s head on a platter. Yes, loud and with his mouth open, coming at you, full speed. Axel also loves to play with his humans. He loves tug, loves to learn new tricks. Axel is also wonderful at self-entertainment. He will chase balls around. A glow in the dark ball is his favorite. He thinks the glow is the coolest engineering marvel. Sometimes he is content to lay around and chomp on a toy. When he is done playing, he ‘herds’ them and puts them in a pile. What a genius! Some 2-legged kids can’t even be taught or bribed to do so! When Axel is done playing, he is sweet and snuggly. He wants to lay close and be petted while he chills. In the summertime, a pool is a must. Axel LOVES water. He will paddle around in the pool, even though is can only hold 6 inches of water 😊 If you leave the pool out in 40-degree weather, he will still jump in and paddle away.

Axel is 6 months old. He is a 30lb Border Weenie (Collie Dachshund) mix. He is looking for a family who is engaging and who looks at his crazy energy and playstyle with affection and humor. A home with a dog of similar energy level and play style is best. He has the potential to annoy and irritate lower energy pups. A home with older kids is a must. Axel has no bite inhibition when he is playing. This is largely due to being removed from his mom and siblings from a young age. Axel is crate and house trained. He walks well in a harness.
